Homeostasis is the way animals maintain a stable internal balance in their body. It allows animals to function in the changing external conditions surrounding their body. Homeostasis is important to Chinook salmon because they depend on the functioning of its cells to help its survival and ability to reproduce.

hope that helped :)
